Goodwill's Annual Appeal is Underway!

300,000 Pounds of Donated Goods

Goodwill Industries of the Pioneer Valley is currently requesting donations of gently used clothing and household items. Donations from families and individuals in our community will help Goodwill reach their Annual Appeal goal of collecting 300,000 pounds of donated goods by the end of the year. This will translate into $150,000 when those donations are sold locally in one of Goodwill's eight retail stores.

Make Your Donation by December 31

Donations can be made at any of the Goodwill retail stores which are open daily and located throughout Westfield, Holyoke, Northampton, Springfield, Chicopee and Palmer. You can also donate through the "Last Chance!" donation drive at all Rocky's Hardware Stores and the Holyoke Mall on December 31st from 9am - 4pm. All financial contributions and donations of goods are tax-deductible for 2009 if made before the end of the year.

Stevens 470 works with Goodwill to prepare and execute the media campaign for this event, including a TV spot, radio ads, newpaper ads, a direct mailing and website updates.
